The ryokan was not well maintained and felt quite dirty. When we were walking to the outdoor bath, we even encountered a snake. There was a strong unpleasant odor throughout the property, and the public bath area did not appear to be cleaned properly. Overall, the cleanliness and maintenance were very disappointing.

The most amazing staff who has shown us nothing but the ultimate kindness and courtesy. The place is breathtaking the beautiful and it is one of those places you never want to leave. The rooms were stunning; clean and truly offers relaxation to the absolute Max. I did not want to leave and miss these people already.

Our state was excellent!!! The hospitality was warm and welcoming., the dinner and breakfast served in our room was fantastic and we enjoyed the Tatami style. We enjoyed the onsets, especially the two private ones. Everything felt so authentic it was exactly what we were hoping for.

Dinner and breakfast were fresh and delicious! There were many parts of it that we got to try and experience which was a lot of fun. The private onsen in our room and the one that is available to use was super relaxing and soothing after a long day of travel. The room was spacious and very cozy as well.

My family generally enjoyed this traditional Japanese experience. The staff was absolutely wonderful, attentive, and friendly. The onsen on our deck was lovely, and we enjoyed our allotted 30 minutes in a private onsen elsewhere on the property. However, our room was old and smelled strongly of mildew. There was water damage on the ceiling and the wall. I opened the windows, but it only mitigated the smell so much. The futon mats were also very uncomfortable to sleep on. Even my kids complained about how uncomfortable they were, and they can usually sleep anywhere. We had a poor night's sleep and were happy to check out the next day. Finally, the food was not to our liking. I recognize this is probably just a cultural difference, but we are very adventurous eaters and we felt we needed to choke down our 8-course dinner as to not offend the staff. Overall, we appreciated the ryokan experience and highly praise the staff, but we would not return to this location.

프라이빗 온천이 좋았음

Muy amables, la comida fue toda una experiencia. El lugar muy bonito y acogedor.

This place was a dream after a busy few days in Tokyo. The onsens (private and public) were serene, the property and rooms are beautiful, and the service was impeccable.

Staff was nothing but super friendly. Onsens were so beautiful and the property was stunning! They even drove us down the hill to the train station so we did not have to lug all our luggage down the hill. Highly recommend and would go back!

The facility is very clean and has a relaxing atmosphere. The onsens were excellent and definitely a highlight of the stay. However, the kaiseki dinner was somewhat disappointing. The dishes lacked flavour, and many of them had a softer, mushy texture. The pacing of the meal could also be improved — there was about a 45-minute wait between courses, which felt quite long. In addition, there were occasional odours noticeable during food service that slightly detracted from the overall dining experience. The staff were courteous, but at times seemed less familiar with the details of the dishes, which made it difficult to fully appreciate the meal. Overall, while there were some positive aspects, the experience did not fully meet expectations for the price.

Place was anazing right out of a movie! I must vist. The food is great the staff accommodating.

The accommodations were wonderful, beautiful property and onsens. We loved being able to reserve the private tubs, found them very relaxing and beautiful. Meals were wonderful and staff very helpful. If the hill up to the property is a problem, we found taking a taxi or uber very easy and cheap. Highly recommend!

Great service and staff, beautiful location and onsens.

Chambre spacieuse, mais pas d’isolation sonore et thermique. Salle de bain à refaire (humidité) et taches sur les futons pour dormir. A part cela nourriture plutôt bonne, personnel très agréable et accueillant. Onsen prive très bien.

We had a lovely stay at Musashino Bekkan. The place felt very welcoming and the staffs are all friendly. Our experience at this ryokan is complete opposite to all the negative reviews this place gets. The place itself is slightly outdated, but that is part of the charm of this place - as if you are transported back in time. The onsens were lovely and we had a private one in ours. The meals were delicious especially the dinner course and we were able to request a kid friendly meal for our son. Wish we could stay longer and experience more this ryokan can offer. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

Very classic old school ryokan. Sure it's a little warn out but that's part of the charm. Think Hotel Grand Budapest. in Japan. Food is very classic kaiseki coursed menu, and great. the Onsen (we spent time in all 3-4 of them) were great. The views lovely. One thing to be aware of is that they charge for any child over 4 years old for the full price of an adult person which is contrary to what most tourists in Japan might be familiar with (such as kids under 6 don't pay for trains etc). They also claim to be kids friendly which I wouldn't agree with. They didn't have a crib and were very insensitive to my 1yr old daughters sleep/nap schedule bursting into our room without notice while they were sleeping to get pillows for the other room.

A very unique japanese experience. Amazing dinner and breakfast.

I do not recommend this ryokan as a luxury property. It does not meet the standard of Japanese hospitality (omotenashi: thoughtful, anticipatory care for guests). Although I expected a traditional ryokan to be cooler, our room was abnormally cold even with the heater at 31°C/88°F, an issue other guests also reported in the lobby. We had to sleep in multiple layers, and only a gas heater with a strong oil smell was initially offered before a small electric heater was found, which barely helped. More concerning was the service. The ryokan is on a steep hill and offers a car service. When I asked if they could pick up my pregnant wife at the bottom of the hill, the front desk attendant (the owner) avoided eye contact and refused as this service was “only for check in and check out”, despite the driver sitting idle in the lobby. This occurred immediately after our heating complaint and felt retaliatory. My (emphasis: pregnant) wife waited in 0°C/32°F weather until another hostess intervened and apologized for the entire situation. Other hostesses beside the owner were polite and apologetic of our stay.

Rustic authentic experience
